There is no Doctor Who 1963-2017 ... using the BBC iPlayer as a
reference it goes;

Doctor Who 1963 - 1996
Doctor Who 2005 - 2022
Doctor Who (2023+)

It is all one show but if the BBC like to separate the
Whoniverse in to distinctive eras, then who are we to argue?

They certainly don't tend to believe the show finished in 2017
anyway!
